San Francisco Bicycle Coalition: 49-Mile Scenic Ride | City Hall

Submitted by the Event Organizer

Come play tourist for a day and enjoy the sights of the city the best way possible: by bicycle.

Inspired by the classic 49-Mile Scenic Drive, this intermediate-level casually-paced ride rolls past a plethora of San Francisco’s iconic attractions and neighborhoods, including the Painted Ladies, Twin Peaks, North Beach, Great Highway, Mission Dolores, and of course the Golden Gate Bridge.

This full-day event includes a midday on-your-own lunch stop in Golden Gate Park and post-ride celebration, including a free beer for each rider, thanks to Fort Point Beer Company, at the Ferry Building.

Details:

• Meet on the Polk Street steps of City Hall at 8am for an 8:30am roll out
